Question #: 14
Topic #: 2
Which Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) parts planning processes are included in SAP Integrated Business Planning for Supply Chain? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question.
MRO parts planning in SAP IBP supports maintenance operations with demand, supply, and inventory processes, per SAP IBP’s supply chain planning scope.
Option A: Inventory OptimizationThis is correct. Inventory Optimization (e.g., safety stock for MRO parts) ensures availability for maintenance, a key MRO process, per SAP IBP’s documentation.
Option B: Demand Driven ReplenishmentThis is incorrect. Demand Driven Replenishment (DDR) is a specific methodology in SAP IBP, but it’s not standard for MRO; it’s more for manufacturing/retail.
Option C: Demand PlanningThis is correct. Demand Planning forecasts MRO parts needs (e.g., based on maintenance schedules), a core process, per SAP IBP’s demand module.
Option D: Supply PlanningThis is correct. Supply Planning ensures MRO parts are sourced and available, using heuristics or optimization, per SAP IBP’s supply planning features.
Option E: SAP Intelligent Asset ManagementThis is incorrect. SAP IAM is a separate solution, not an IBP process, though it can integrate with IBP for MRO planning.
Thus, A, C, and D are MRO processes in SAP IBP, per official documentation.
